Starting Pifo Bytes

The heart of #pifo lies in fostering betterment and belonging.

Munger advocates mastering one simple thing for life. Jobs adds that true mastery demands a touch of madness—a willingness to walk solitary paths for long stretches. #pifo is that simple one thing that demands insanity from me everyday. I love it’s purity and authenticity. Year after year the vision grows on me. This year being super significant and tough. The toughness comes from the fact that if I start something this year in PiFo it must run for atleast three decades minimum else we will not start it. That is the catch.

So I had to think long deep and hard on all things I start this year and hereafter. With a lot of mindfulness I started PiFo bytes this year, capturing the most important topic of the week discussed in our community. In just 6 weeks, PiFo Bytes, our weekly community digest, has become my Saturday highlight. Six weeks in, it's already nurturing authentic dialogue on diverse topics. Crafting each Byte challenges me to distill complex ideas into digestible insights—a mini TED like talk, if you will. The constraints spark creativity, sharpening my articulation skills.

PiFo's evolution in the last five years fills me with purpose. It's a reminder that changing the world starts here and now. Overthinking often holds us back; sometimes, we just need to act.

Doubts creep in about sustaining these initiatives, but I persist. Quitting is easy; the real challenge lies in maximizing our potential with available resources. This very challenge fuels me.

If I maintain this course, I'll face my end knowing I've lived nobly, pushing boundaries till the last.
